  • Learn how to use the second conditional in real life. If you know the basics of the second conditional, but are not sure when and how to actually use it when you speak, this advanced English grammar lesson is just for you. I will teach you about implied “if” clauses, common sentence types, and formal words and phrases that you can use with the second conditional. Wouldn’t it be great if you could learn how to talk about potential realities? Imagine if you knew how to use the second conditional with ease! That would be wonderful, wouldn’t it? That’s exactly what this lesson is for. If you are familiar with the basics of the second conditional and you want to know how to apply it to daily life and real English conversations, watch this class. We think you would really love it if you tried it! www.engvid.com/2nd-conditiona...

    Hi Alex, that was advanced usage of second conditional. It is application of it in real life speeches and conversations. But wait Alex, seeing beyond ourselves, I opined that not just our but next generation deserves to benefit from this your wealth of knowledge resources. I suggest you put the contents of this class and others in book form. So that families, house holds & generations can have access to them. God bless you & yours. -Apostle Moses

    Hi, thanks a bunch for the videos! I love your channel and quite a few other engVid channels.
    please correct me if i am worng
    - you **wouldn't** say that if you **knew** what I **knOw** (*implies that the speaker currently possesses knowledge that the listener does not*)
    - you **wouldn't** say that if you **knew** what I **knEw** (*suggests that the speaker and the listener had access to the same information in the past*)
    I am entirely sure, that someone knows all the asnwers :D

      You can use “If I had to” as well! I wish I had included it in this lesson now. 😅
